Ibn Babuwayh, from his father, from Ahmad Bin Idrees, from Muhammad Bin Hisan, from Ismail Bin
Mahran, from Al-Hassan Bin Abu A’la,

‘From Abu Abdullahasws who has said: ‘The one who recites Surahs Al-Hadeed, and
Al-Mujadila (Chapter 58) in the Obligatory Salats, making a habit of it, would not be
Punished by Allahazwj ever, until he dies, and he will never see any evil in himself or
in his family ever, nor any discord in his body’.1

Al-Tabarsy, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir Al-Ju’fy,

‘From Abu Ja’farasws having said: ‘The one who recites all of The Glorifiers ( ‫)المسبحات‬
(Ch 57 Surah Al-Hadeed; Ch 59 Surah Al-Hashr; Ch 61 Surah Al-Saff; Ch 62 Surah
Jumm’a and Ch 64 Surah Al-Taghabun) before he sleeps, will not die until he sees
Al-Qaimasws. And if he dies, he would be in the neighbourhood of Rasool-Allahsaww’.2

‫ « ددن قد أ هد ر النددورا ادداع حقددا عسددى اه أع ي بدده ددن‬:‫ رال عددن البددع ايددسى اه عسيدده ا آلدده أندده قددال‬: ‫ا ددن اخدواق القد آع‬

It has been reported from the Prophetsaww having said: ‘The one who recites this
Chapter (Surah Al-Hadeed) would have a right upon Allahazwj to Grant him Security
from Hisazwj Punishment, and Grant him Bounties in Hisazwj Paradise.

.»‫ ا لو ااع ا ااع عسيه ن اجلبايات‬،‫ سعم اه خ اجه‬،‫ا ن أد ن ق ا هتا ا ااع قيدا غسوال نجونا‬

And one who habitually recites it, and was bound, shackled and imprisoned, Allah azwj
would Ease his release even if there were crimes committed by him’.3

‫ ا ادداع قددول‬،‫ىت يص دهلله سددعم ا ال حديددد‬ ‫ « ددن اتهللعددا ا عسقعددا عسيدده ا هددو ف اا د‬: ‫ا قددال رسددول اه ايددسى اه عسيدده ا آلدده‬
،‫القسب ف طسب القتال‬

And Rasool-Allahsaww said: ‘One who writes it, and attaches it (as an amulet), and he
was in the war, neither an arrow nor iron would hit him, and he would be strong of
heart in seeking the battle.

.»‫ا إع ق ئت عسى وضع ميه حديد خ ج ن اقته ن غري أىت‬

And if it is recited upon a place in which there is iron (battle), he would come out
immediately without any pain’.4

In (the book) Majma Al Bayan - Ubayy Bin Ka’ab,

Written to be from: those who believe in Allah and His Rasool [57:19]’’.5

Ahmad Bin Idrees, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Fuzayl Bin
Usman, from Ibn Abu Yafour who said,

‘I asked Abu Abdullahasws about the Words of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic: He is the
First, and the Last, and I said, ‘As for ‘the First’, so we recognise it, and as for ‘the
Last’, so clarify its interpretation for us’.

So heasws said: ‘There is nothing except that it perishes, or changes, or there enters
into it the change and the decline, or transfers from a colour to a colour, and from a
form to a form, and from an attribute to an attribute, and from an increase to a
decrease, and from a decrease to an increase, except for the Lord azwj of the worlds.
So Heazwj has never ceased to be or will cease to be in one state. He azwj was first
before everything and Heazwj would be Last for as long as eternity.

The attributes and the Names are not different upon Him azwj just as they would be
upon others, like the human being who happened to be dust one time, and flesh and
blood at one time, and one time would be decaying and bones, and like the date
which happens to be raw, and one time ripe, and one time mature, and one time
dried up. Thus, the names and the attributes change upon it and Allahazwj Majestic
and Mighty is opposite to that’.6

And from him, from Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Ibn Azina, from
Muhammad Bin Hakeem, from Maymoun Al-Ban who said,

‘I heard Abu Abdullahasws, and I had asked about the First and the Last, so he asws
said: ‘The First – There was no first before Himazwj, nor did any beginning precede
Himazwj. And the Last – There is no annihilation for Himazwj like the qualities of the
created things, but Heazwj is Eternal, First, Last. Heazwj has always Been and will
always Be, without any beginning or an end. Changes do not occur to Him azwj, nor
does Heazwj Change from one state to another. Heazwj is the Creator of all things’.7

In Nahj Al Balagah –

‘(Amir Al Momineenasws said): ‘And every apparent is other than Him azwj, other than
hidden, and every hidden is other than Himazwj, other than apparent’.

And in it – ‘The First – the One Who has no ‘before’ for Himazwj, for something to
exist before Himazwj. And the Last – the One Who has no ‘after’ for Himazwj, for
something to exist after Himazwj’.

‫ ا الظَّ ي‬،‫ شي بدعدر‬،‫ ا ْاْل يخ ي مج ج‬،‫ شي قجدهللدسجه‬،‫اامد ليسَّ يه ْاْل َّجايل مج ج‬

And in it – ‘The Praise is for Allahazwj, the First, so there is nothing before Him azwj,
and the Last, so there is nothing after Him azwj, and the Apparent, so there is nothing
above Himazwj, and the Hidden, so there is nothing below Himazwj’.

obligates that there is no last for Himazwj’.

When it was the morning, Amir-al-Momineenasws went out, and with himasws were Abu
Bakr, and Umar, and a group from the Emigrants and the Helpers, until heasws came
to the Baqee and paused upon the high ground. When the sun displayed its rays,
heasws said: ‘Greetings be upon you, O the new creature of Allahazwj, O the obedient
to Himazwj’.

. ‫ يا ن هو بكم شي عسيم‬،‫ يا باطن‬، ‫ يا ظاه‬، ‫ يا آخ‬،‫ يا أال‬،‫ ااعسيك الن‬:‫منمعوا دايا ن النما اجوا قائم يقول‬

When Abu Bakr, and Umar, and the Emigrants, and the Helpers heard the speech of
the sun, they swooned (passed out). Then they came around after a while, and Amir-
al-Momineenasws had left from the place. So they came to Rasool-Allahsaww along

when heasws addressed the sun, the sun answered to him asws by what the Creatorazwj
(Allahazwj) is Himselfazwj addressed by?’

Muhammad Bin Al-Abbas, from Muhammad Bin Sahl Al-Ataar, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from
Abu Zara’at Ubeydullah Bin Abdul Kareem, Qabaysat Bin Uqba, from Sufyan Bin Yahya, from Jabir
Bin Abdullah who said,

‘I met Ammar in one of the markets of Al-Medina, so I asked him about the
Prophetsaww. He informed me that hesaww was in hissaww Masjid filled with hissaww
people, and that when hesaww had prayed Al Fajr Salat, hesaww turned towards us.

‫ ا‬، ‫ مقدا إليده البدع ايدسى اه عسيده ا آلده‬، ،‫ إذا أقهللدم عسدي بدن أيب طالدب اعسيده الند‬،‫مهلليبما حنن ا لك ا قدد بزغدت الفدمس‬

While we were in the midst of that, and the sun had emerged, when Aliasws Bin Abu
Talibasws came up, the Prophetsaww stood up for himasws, and kissed himasws between
hisasws eyes, and made himasws to be seated by hissaww side to the extent that hisasws
knees were touching hissaww knees, then said: ‘O Aliasws! Arise and go speak to the
sun, for it would speak to you’.

‫ ال يزال ي مع خنينة ابن عمه ا يبور باله‬:‫ أ ت ى الفمس تكسم عسيا؟ ا قال بعض‬:‫ مقالوا‬،‫مقا أهم ابنجد‬

The people of the Masjid stood up and said, ‘Do you see that the sun would speak to
Aliasws?’ And some said, ‘Hesaww never stops to raise the despicable cousinasws of
hissaww and hinting with hisasws name’.

.‫ يا ن هو بكم شي عسيم‬،‫ظاه يا باطن‬

When Aliasws went out, heasws said to the sun: ‘How is your morning, O creature of
Allahazwj?’ It said, ‘With goodness, O brotherasws of Rasool-Allahsaww, O First, O Last,
O Apparent, O Hidden, O one who is a knower of all things!’

‫ َتددربين أا‬،‫ «يددا عسددي‬:‫ إن البددع ايددسى اه عسيدده ا آلدده متهللنددم البددع ايددسى اه عسيدده ا آلدده ا مقددال‬،‫م جددع عسددي اعسيدده الندد‬

So Aliasws returned to the Prophetsaww. The Prophetsaww smiled and said: ‘O Aliasws!
Will youasws inform mesaww, or shall Isaww inform youasws?’ Heasws said: ‘It would be
better from yousaww, O Rasool-Allahsaww!’

So Rasool-Allahsaww said: ‘But rather, it said to youasws: ‘O First – for youasws are the
first one to believe in Allahazwj. And it said to you: ‘O Last – for youasws would be the
last one to support me on washing mesaww. And its words: ‘O Apparent – for youasws

And (as for) its words: ‘O Hidden – for youasws the one in whom mysaww Knowledge is
hidden in. And as for (its words): ‘The knower of all things’, for there is no Knowledge
which Allahazwj the Exalted has Revealed about the Permissibles, and the Prohibited,
and the Obligations, and the Regulations, and the Revelation, and the Abrogating,
and the Abrogated, and the Decisive, and the Allegorical, and the difficult, except
that youasws are a knower of it.

And had it not been (the fear) that a group from mysaww community would say about
youasws, that which the Christians say about Isaas, Isaww would say regarding youasws
such words that none would pass by you, except that he would take the dust from
yourasws feet in order to be healed by it’.

And from him, from Abdul Aziz Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Zakariyya, from Ali Bin Hakim, from
Al-Rabi’e Bin Abdullah, from Abdullah Bin Hasan,

Abu Ja’farasws Bin Aliasws having said: ‘One day, the Prophetsaww had rested hissaww
head upon the lap of Aliasws. When Rasool-Allahsaww fell asleep, and Aliasws had not
prayed the Afternoon (Asr) Salat, then sun started to set.

‫ ف اقت‬-‫ مدعا اه م د اه الفمس اعيَئتعا‬،‫ته‬،‫ شأع ي‬،‫ م ا له عسي اعسيه الن‬، ‫مانتهلله رسول اه ايسى اه عسيه ا آله‬
.‫العص ا ا ذا حديث رد الفمس‬

Rasool-Allahsaww became attentive, and Aliasws mentioned to himsaww about the status
of hisasws Salat. So hesaww supplicated to Allahazwj. Allahazwj Returned the sun to as it
was before (during the time of the Asr (Prayer))’. And he asws mentioned the Hadeeth
of the returning of the sun.

،‫ الند‬:‫ قدم‬:‫ ايف أسسم عسيعدا؟ قدال‬،‫ يا رسول اه‬:‫ مقال له‬،‫ ا اسمعا مإهنا تكسمك‬،‫ قم منسم عسى الفمس‬،‫ يا عسي‬:‫مقال له‬
.‫ عسيك يا خسق اه‬،‫ الن‬:‫ ا قال‬،‫ مقا عسي اعسيه الن‬،‫عسيك يا خسق اه‬

So hesaww said to himasws: ‘Arise and greet the sun, and speak to it, for it would speak
to youasws’. So heasws said to himsaww: ‘O Rasool-Allahsaww! In what manner shall Iasws
greet it?’ Hesaww said: ‘Greetings be upon you, O creature of Allahazwj!’ So Aliasws
stood up and said: ‘Greetings be upon you, O creature of Allahazwj!’

،‫ ا يوثق هللغايه‬،‫ يا ن يبجي حمهلليه‬،‫ يا ظاه يا باطن‬، ‫ يا أال يا آخ‬،‫ ا عسيك الن‬:‫مقالت‬

So it said: ‘And greetings be upon youasws, O First, O Last, O Apparent, O Hidden, O


one who rescues those who love himasws, and destroys the ones who hate himasws’.

‫ قم ا‬: ‫ ا ردت عسيك الفمس؟ مكاع عسي ااَتا عبه مقال له البع ايسى اه عسيه ا آله‬: ‫مق ال له البع ايسى اه عسيه ا آله‬
.‫قالت لك الفمس؟ مقال له ا قالتا‬

The Prophetsaww said: ‘What did the sun reply to youasws?’ But Aliasws was shy of
himsaww. So the Prophetsaww said to himasws: ‘Speak, what did the sun say to youasws?’
Then heasws told himsaww what it said.

So the Prophetsaww said: ‘The sun has spoken the truth, and it is from the Command

From a man who has said that Abu Ja’farasws has narrated (on behalf of) Abu
Abdullahasws that he said: ‘Allahazwj Created the skies and the earth in six days, so
the year is six days’ short’ (six months are of 29 days).12

From Al-Sabah Bin Sayabat,

‘Abu Ja’farasws having said: ‘Allahazwj Created the months as twelve months, and
these are of three hundred and sixty days. So Heazwj Separated six days from it in
which Heazwj created the skies, and the earth. So from then the months are deficient’
(29 days in six months).13

And from him (Al Sadouq) who said, ‘Muhammad Bin Al Hassan Bin Ahmad Bin Al Waleed narrated
to us, from Muhammad Bin Al Hassan Al Saffar, from Ali Bin Ismail, from Hamaad Bin Isa, from
Ibrahim Bin Umar Al Yamani, from Abu Al Tufayl,

‘From Abu Ja’farasws, from Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws having said: ‘Surely, Allahazwj
Mighty and Majestic Created the Throne as the fourth, and did not Created before it
except for three things – the Air, and the Pen, and the Light. Then Heazwj Created a
variety of Lights. Thus, from that Light is a Green light, the greenery is green from it;
and a Yellow Light, the yellowness is yellow from it; and a Red Light, the redness is
red from it; and a White Light, and it is a light of the Lights, and from it is the
illumination of the day.

.‫ ا ْلهسك ا دانه‬،‫الهلل ار‬

Then Heazwj Made it as seventy thousand layers, the thickness of each layer being
like the height of the Throne to its lowest low. There is none from that layer except
that it Glorifies with the Praise of its Lordazwj, and Extols Hisazwj Holiness by different
voices, and languages which do not resemble each other. And had a language from
it were to call out, a something from it were to be heard from what is beneath it, the
mountains would be demolished, and the cities, and the forts, and the oceans would
be submerged, and what is besides it would perish.

For it (The Throne) are eight corners. Upon each corner from it are (so many) Angels
that none can count their number except for Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic. They are
Glorifying during the night and the day, not cooling down. And had there been
something better than what is above it, they would not stand to that even for the blink
of an eye, between Himazwj and the Sense of the Mightiness, and the Greatness, and
the Magnificence, and the Holiness, and the Mercy, then the Knowledge. And there
is nothing (more) behind this speech’.14

Ibn Babuwayh said, ‘Tameem Bin Abdullah Bin Tameem al Qarshy narrated to us, from his father,
from Ahmad Bin Ali Al Ansary, from Abu Al Salt Abdul Salaam Bin Salih Al Harwy who said,

‘Abu Al-Hassan Al-Rezaasws said: ‘Surely Allahazwj Blessed and Exalted Created the
Throne, and the water, and the Angels before Heazwj Created the skies and the earth.
And the Angels used to infer by themselves, and by the Throne, and by the water, to
Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic. Then Heazwj Made Hisazwj Throne to be upon the water,
in order to apparent Hisazwj Power by that to the Angels, so that they would come to
know that Heazwj has Power over everything. Then Heazwj Raised the Throne by
Hisazwj Power and Transferred it, so Heazwj Made it to be above the seventh sky.

‫ ا لكبه عز ا‬، ‫ ا ااع قادرا عسى أع َيسقعا ف ط مة ع‬،‫ ا هو نتول عسى ع شه‬، ‫ا خسق النمااات ا اْلرض ف ستة أيا‬

And Heazwj: Created the skies and the earth in six days [57:4], and Heazwj Took
Control upon Hisazwj Throne. And Heazwj has all the Power to Create it in the blink of
an eye, but the Mighty and Majestic Created it in six days, in order to Apparent to the
Angels what Heazwj Created from it, a thing after a thing. So they were evidenced by
the occurrence of what occurred, to Allah azwj the High, time and again. And Allah azwj
did not Create the Throne for any need of His azwj, because Heazwj is above any need
of the Throne, and from all of what He azwj Created. Heazwj cannot be described to be

‘From Abu Ja’farasws (having said): ‘The Words of the Mighty and Majestic: Indeed!
They are folding up their chests to conceal from Him [11:5]. Heazwj is Saying,
they are concealing what is in their chests from the hatred of Aliasws, and Rasool-
Allahsaww said: ‘Surely a sign of the hypocrite is hatred of Aliasws, and they were a
group arrogating the cordiality to Aliasws in the presence of the Prophetsaww and they
were keeping hatred for himasws a secret.

So, Heazwj, Majestic is Hisazwj Mentioned Said: Indeed, (it is) when they are

Al-Sheykh Al-Mufeed, by his chain, from Muhammad Bin Hamam,

A man from the companions of Abu Abdullah asws said, ‘I heard himasws saying: ‘This
Verse was Revealed - [57:16] And that they should not be like those who were
given the Book before, but the time became prolonged to them, so their hearts
hardened, and most of them are transgressors – regarding the people of the era
of the occultation, and the prolongation of the duration of the occultation’.

‫ متأايدم هد ر‬.‫ن قهللم مطال عسيعم اْل د‬ ‫ ال تكونوا اال ين أاتوا الكتا‬،‫ أا يا عف الفيعة‬،‫ يا أ ة حممد‬،‫اأنه أراد عز ا جم‬
.‫اْلية جار ف أهما ز اع الغيهللة ا أيا عا داع غريهم‬

Ait is as if the Mighty and Majestic Intended: ‘O community of Muhammadsaww, or O


community of the Shias! Do not become like the ones who were Given the Book
before, and the duration was prolonged for them’. So the explanation of this Verse
flows regarding the people of the era of the occultation, and its days, apart from
others’.45

severe Punishment and a Forgiveness from Allah and Pleasure. And what is

said,

‘Abu Abdullahasws said: ‘The smallest allocation of the people of the Paradise, when
the one who enters his dwelling in Paradise, there will be raised for him three
Gardens. So when he enters the lowest one of it, he would see therein from the
wives, and from the servants, and the rivers, and the fruits, whatsoever Allah azwj
Desires, from what will fill his eyes with delight, and his heart with pleasure.

So when he thanks Allahazwj and praises Himazwj it will be Said to him: ‘Raise your

he would be saying, ‘O Lordazwj! Youazwj have Given me this!’ So Allahazwj the High
would Say: “Iazwj have Given you these two, are you asking Me azwj for other than
this?’ So he would be saying, ‘Lordazwj! This one! This one!’ So when he enters it,
and his pleasure magnifies, he will Thank Allahazwj and Praise Himazwj’.

Heasws said: ‘So it will be Said: ‘Open the Door for him to the Paradise’, and it will be
Said to him: ‘Raise your head!’ So when the Door from the Eternal Paradise (‫ )الخلد‬is
opened for him, and he sees more than what was from before, so he would be
saying during the magnification of his pleasure, ‘Lordazwj! For Yousaww is the Praise
which cannot be numbered since Youazwj Bestowed upon my heart and Rescued me
from the Fires’. And the Hadeeth is lengthy. We have taken what was needed from
it’.66

Allahazwj Curse himla, and were brought to himla , Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws and
daughters of Amir Al-Momineenasws, and Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws was bound and
shackled. Yazeedla said: ‘O Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws! The Praise is due to Allahazwj
Who Killed yourasws fatherasws’. So Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws said: ‘Curse of Allahazwj
be upon the one who killed myasws fatherasws!’

‫ مإذا قتستين مهللبات رسول اه ايسى‬: ،‫ مقال عسي بن اان اعسيعما الن‬،‫ مغاب يزيد ا أ با عبقه اعسيه الن‬:‫قال‬

So Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws said: ‘So if youla were to kill measws, then for the
daughters of Rasool-Allahsaww, who will return them to their houses, and there is not

Then hela called for the shackles (to be removed), so he la went towards the shackles

And heasws said: ‘The water keeps turning (changing) for forty days in the womb. So
the one who intends to supplicate to Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic, so he should do it
in those forty (days) before it (a child) is Created’.

‫ يا إالي أذا أ انثى؟ ميوحي اه‬:‫مث يهللعث اه سك االرحا ميأخ ها ميصعد هبا إن عزاجم ميقف به حيث يفا اه ميقول‬
‫ يا االي اشقي ا سعيد؟ ميوحي اه عزاجم ن ذلك ا يفا ايكتب‬:‫عزاجم ا يفا ايكتب ابسك مث يقول‬

Then Allahazwj Sends an Angel to the womb, so he seizes it and ascends with it to
the Mighty and Majestic. So he pauses from it wherever Allah azwj so Desires it. Then
he says: ‘O my God! Male or female?’ So Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic Reveals unto
him whatever Heazwj so Desire, and the Angels writes it down, then says, ‘O my God!
Wretched or happy?’ So Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Reveals from that whatever
Heazwj so Desires to, and he writes it down.

Then he says: ‘O my God! How much is its sustenance, and what is its term?’ Then
he writes it down, and writes down in between its eyes, everything that it would face

‘Abu Abdullahasws said: ‘O Hafs! The status of the word within myself asws is nothing
except for the corpse. If Iasws am forced into it, Iasws would eat from it. O Hafs!
Allahazwj Blessed and Exalted Knows what the servants are doing, and to what they
are ending up to. But, Heazwj Forbears from them during their evil deeds for what has
preceded in Hisazwj Knowledge, therefore do not let the beauty of the seeker, from
those who do not fear the death, deceive you’.

،‫ «ماز ا اه اْلب ار‬:‫ مث قال‬.»‫ «ذههللت ا اه اْل اين عبد ه ر اْلية‬:‫ ا جعم يهللكي ا يقول‬،‫َّار ْاْل يخجاُ اْلية‬ ‫ تيسْ ج‬:‫ قوله‬،‫مث ت‬

Then heasws recited Hisazwj Words: That is the House of the Hereafter [28:83] – the
Verse, and went on to cry, and heasws was saying: ‘By Allahazwj! Myasws aspirations
are gone, with this Verse’. Then heasws said: ‘By Allahazwj! The righteous have
succeeded. Do you know who they are? They are the ones who are not harming
even a particle. The fear of Allahazwj suffices knowledge, and delusion suffices the
ignorance.

‫ دعي ف سكوت‬،‫ ا عمم مبا عسم‬،‫ ن تعسم ا عسم‬،‫ إنه يغف لسجاهم سهللعوع ذنهللا قهللم أع يغف لسعاىت ذنب ااحد‬،‫يا حفص‬

O Hafs! Heazwj Forgives seventy sins of the ignorant before Heazwj Forgives one sin of
the knowledgeable one. The one who learns, and acquires knowledge, and acts in
accordance with what he has learnt, is referred to as great in the Kingdoms of the
skies, for it is said: ‘He learnt for the sake of Allah azwj, and acted for the Sake of
Allahazwj, and taught for the Sake of Allahazwj’’.

I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for youasws! What is the limit of the ascetism in the world?’
Heasws said: ‘Allahazwj has Defined its Limit in Hisazwj Book, so the Mighty and Majestic
Said: So that you may not despair over what has escaped you, nor be happy
with what has been Given to you [57:23]. The most knowledgeable of the people
with Allahazwj is the one who is the most fearing for the Sake of Allah azwj, and the
most fearing he is the most knowledgeable he would be, and the most
knowledgeable he is, the more ascetic he would be’.

asceticism has ten parts, and the higher level of the asceticism is the lowest level of
the Pleasure. Indeed! The asceticism is in a Verse from the Book of Allah azwj: So
that you may not despair over what has escaped you, nor be happy with what
has been Given to you [57:23]’.

‫ أحدام ال إله إال‬:‫ مإذا قال‬،‫ «ا أنا أقول ال إله إال اه‬: ،‫ ا قال عسي بن اان اعسيعما الن‬.‫ ال إله إال اه‬:‫مقال ال جم‬

So the man said, ‘There is no god except for Allah azwj’. And Aliasws Bin Al-Husaynasws
said: ‘And Iasws (also) say there is no god except for Allahazwj. So when one of you
says, ‘There is no god except for Allahazwj’, so he should (immediately) say, ‘The
Praise is for Allahazwj the Lordazwj of the Worlds’, for Allahazwj is Saying: He is the
Living. There is no God except Him, therefore supplicate to Him, being sincere
to Him in Religion. The Praise is for Allah, Lord of the worlds [40:65] ’.76

Muhammad Bin Abdu Abdullah and Muhammad Bin Al Hassan, from Sahl Bin Ziyad and Muhammad

‘From Abu Ja’farasws the 2nd who said, ‘Abu Abdullahasws said: ‘While myasws fatherasws
was performing Tawaaf of the Kabah, when a man covered by a turban of his like an
egg-shell, cut off hisasws seven (circuits) until he made himasws enter into a house by

So he said, ‘Welcome, O sonasws of Rasool-Allahsaww!’ Then he placed his hand upon

We return to the report of Ali Bin Ibrahim,

‘Then the Mighty and Majestic Said: Allah is the One Who Revealed the Book and
the Scale with the Truth [42:17], said, ‘The Scale is Amir Al-Momineenasws, and
the evidence upon that are Hisazwj Words in Surah Al-Rahman (Chapter 55): And the
sky, He elevated it, and He Placed the Scale [55:7] - Meaning the Imamasws’.82

The descent of the iron

Ibn Shehr Ashub, from Tafseer of Al Sady, from Abu Salih, from Ibn Abbas –

‘Regarding the Words of the Exalted: and We Sent down the iron [57:25], he said,
‘Allahazwj Send down Adamas and with himas was a sword from the Paradise (called)
Zulfiqar, Created from a myrtle leaf of the Paradise.

،‫ ح ي ثه أ ري اب ب مي ار به ع البع اْل ي‬،‫ ا يديق بعد يديق‬،‫بعد نع‬

Then Heazwj Said: wherein is severe violence [57:25]. So Adamas used to battle
hisas enemies from the Jinn and the Satansla, and there was inscribed upon it: “Myazwj
Prophetsas will not cease to battle by it, Prophetas after Prophetas, and truthful after
truthful”, until Amir Al Momineenasws inherited it, so heasws used to battle by it along
with the Ummy Prophetsaww.

guided ones, apart from the rest of them?’ They said, ‘And from where is it, O Abu
Al-Hassanasws?’ So heasws said: ‘From the Words of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic:
And We had Sent Noah and Ibrahim, and We Made the Prophet-hood and the
Book to be in their offspring. So, from them (some) were rightfully Guided, and
most of them are transgressors [57:26]. So the inheritance of the Prophet-hood
and the Book is for the Guided onesasws, apart from the transgressors.

Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic had Promised himas that Heazwj would Rescue hisas

Then We Made Our Rasools to follow in their footsteps, and We sent Isa son of

،‫ اه ارسوله أعسم‬:‫عهللد هم تدرى ن أين أحدثت ببو اس ائيم ال ههللانية ؟ مقست‬

And to complement this is what has come -

By the report from Ibn Mas’ud who said, ‘I accompanied Rasool-Allahsaww upon the
donkey, so hesaww said: ‘O son of Umm Abd! Do you know from where the Children
of Israel have started the Monasticism (Priesthood)?’ So I said, ‘Allah azwj and Hisazwj

So hesaww said: ‘The tyrants appeared over them after Isaas, acting in disobedience to
Allahazwj. So the people of the Eman were angered, and they (tyrants) tried to kill
them. The people of the Eman were defeated three times, and there did not remain
from them any, except a few.

‫ متعالوا نتف ق ف االرض إن أع يهللعث اه البع ال ى اعدنا به عينى‬،‫ اع ظع نا ال ال امبونا اىت يهللق لسدين أحد يدعو إليه‬:‫مقالوا‬

So they said, ‘They (the tyrants) have destroyed us, and there does not remain for
the Religion anyone who can call towards it. Come, let us disperse in the earth to the
place where Allahazwj would be Sending the Prophetsaww that Isaas promised us with’
– meaning Muhammadsaww. So they dispersed in the caves of the mountains, and
started Monasticism (Priesthood).

‫ممبعم ن َتنك بديبه ; ا بعم ن اف‬

Thus, from among them is one who attaches himself to his Religion; and from among
them is one who committed Kufr’.

Then hesaww recited this Verse: And (as for) monasticism (priesthood), they

Then hesaww said: ‘O son of Umm Abd! Do you know what is the Monasticism

Surely, the Imamate is what Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Specialised Ibrahimas the
Friend with it, after the Prophet-hood and the Friendship, as a third in sequence, and
a merit Heazwj Ennobled himas with, and was Intense in Mentioning with it, thus Heazwj
Said: “I will Make you an Imam for the people” [2:124]. So the Friend said in
joyfulness with it: And from my offspring?’ Allahazwj the Blessed and Exalted Said:
He Said: “My Covenant cannot be attained by the unjust”. Therefore, this Verse
invalidates the imamate of every unjust one up to the Day of Judgment and it came
to be only among the Elitesasws.

‫ جا‬. ‫ جج جع ْسبا ياايي ج‬،ً ‫اق جا يدج ْع ُقو ج ناميسجةم جا ُا‬ ‫الص ْف جواي جا الطَّ جع جاراي مجد جق ج‬

‫الزااا جا اانُوا لجبا عابد ج‬ ‫اخلجْريات جا إقا ج َّ ج ج‬ ‫ْ ج‬ ‫ج ْج‬ ‫ج‬ ْ ُ ‫جج جع ْس‬
Then Allahazwj Honoured himas by Making it (the Imamate) to be among hisas
offspring of the elite peopleasws and the Purified ones, so Heazwj Said [And We
Bestowed to him Is’haq and Yaqoub in addition, and We Made both to be
righteous ones [21:72] And We made them as Imams guiding by Our
Command and We Revealed unto them the doing of good, and establishing the
Salat, and giving the Zakat, and they worshipped Us [21:73].

‫ان إي َّع أ ْجاجن‬ ‫يي‬

So it (Imamate) did not cease to be among hisas offspring, being inherited, by one
from the other, generation after generation until Allah azwj Made the Prophetsaww to
inherit it. So the Majestic and Exalted Said: Surely the foremost of people to
Ibrahim are those who follow him and this Prophet and those who are
believing; and Allah is the Guardian of the Momineen [3:68].

So it was for himsaww in particular, and hesaww collared it on Aliasws by the Command
of Allahazwj the Exalted upon a Decree what Allahazwj had Imposed. So it (Imamate)
came to be among hisasws offspring, the clean, those whom Allahazwj had Given the
Knowledge and the Eman, in the Words of the Exalted: And those Given the
Knowledge and the Eman would say: ‘You have tarried up to the Day of the

you were not knowing’ [30:56].

Thus, it (Imamate) would be in the children of Aliasws in particular, up to the Day of


Judgment, where there would be no Prophetas after Muhammadsaww. So from where
are these ignoramuses choosing? The Imamate, it is a status of the Prophets as, and
an inheritance of the successorsas. The Imamate is the Caliphate of Allahazwj and
Caliphate of Rasool-Allahsaww, and position of Amir Al-Momineenasws, and an
inheritance of Al-Hassanasws and Al-Husaynasws.

The Imamate is a rein of the Religion, and a system of the Muslims, and a corrector
of the world, and an honour of the Momineen. The Imamate is the developing base
of Al-Islam and its high branch. By the Imam asws is completed, the Salat, and the
Zakat, and the Fasts, and the Hajj, and the Jihad, and the war booty and the
charities are provided, and the Legal Penalties and the judgments are enforced, and
the frontiers and outskirts are defended.

The Imamasws is like the emerging sun shining by its light to the world and it is in the

The Imamasws is the fresh water upon the thirsty, and the indicator upon the guide,
and the saviour from the annihilation. The Imam asws is the fire of the hill for the one
who wants to warm himself with it, and the Indicator regarding the perils of the one
who separates from himasws, so he would be destroyed.

The Imamasws is the one purified from the sins, and the free from the faults, the one
specialised with the knowledge, the one marked by the forbearance, a system of the
Religion, and an honour of the Muslims, and an enrager of the hypocrites, and
destroyer of the disbelievers.

The Imamasws is one of hisasws time. Neither can anyone resemble himasws nor can a
scholar be equivalent to himasws, nor can a replacement be found for him asws, nor is
there an example for himasws, nor a match. Heasws is specialised with the (Divine)
merits, all of it, without there being a seeking from him asws for it, nor being attained.
But a specialisation as the Grace of the Endower.

So who is that who can reach the recognition of the Imam asws, or is able to choose
himasws? Far be it! Far be it! The intellects have strayed, and the tolerances are lost,
and the understanding ones are confused, and the eyes are dulled, and the great
ones are belittled, and wise ones are confused, and the tolerant ones are deficient,
and the preachers are restricted, and the intelligent ones are ignorant, and the poets
are scarce (of words), and the writers are frustrated, and the eloquent ones are
wordless from describing a glory from hisasws glories, or a merit from hisasws merits
and are acknowledging the frustration and the deficiency.

And how can heasws be described with all of it or attributed with hisasws qualities, or
anything from hisasws matters be understood, or someone can be found to stand in
hisasws place and be needless with hisasws needlessness? No! How and where, and
heasws is where the star is from the hands of the possessors, and the description of
the describers. So where is the choice from this, and where are the intellects from
this, and where can a likeness of this be found? Are they thinking that, that can be
found among other than the Progenyasws of the Rasoolsaww Muhammadsaww? By
Allahazwj! They are belying their own selves and the falsehoods have induced them.

So they are ascending a difficult ascent whereby their feet would slip them back to
the rock bottom. They are wishing to establish the Imam by their own intellects which
are confused, deficient, and their misleading views? So it will not increase them from
it except for remoteness. May Allah Fight them, How deluded they are! [9:30].

And they have thrown an insult and are saying a lie, and are straying a far straying,

So how can there be a choice for them to choose the Imam asws, and the Imamasws is
a knowledgeable one, not ignorant, and a shepherd not recoiling from the Holy
Duties, and the cleanliness, and the rituals, and the ascetism, and the knowledge,
and the worship, specialised by the call of the Rasoolsaww, and of the lineage of the

There would neither be any blemish in him asws regarding a lineage, nor can he

Heasws is the noblest of the nobles, and the branch from Abd Manaf, of growing
knowledge, perfect of the forbearance, undertaker of the Imamate, knowledgeable of
the governance (of people), of the necessitated obedience, established of the

neither tires of answering (based on opinions), nor does he asws get confused with
regards to it from the correct answer.

Thus, heasws is infallible, Assisted, Harmonised, Protected. Heasws is secure from the
mistakes, and the slips, and the short-comings. Allahazwj Specialises himasws with that
in order for himasws to become Hisazwj Divine Authority upon Hisazwj servant, and
Hisazwj witness upon Hisazwj creatures, and: That is a Grace of Allah. He Gives it to
the one He so Desires to, and Allah is with the Mighty Grace [57:21].

So, are they able upon the likes of this, that they would be choosing him asws, or can

are transgressing, and Iasws swear by the House of Allahazwj, the Truth, and they
flung the Book of Allah behind their backs, as if they were not knowing [2:101].
And in the Book of Allahazwj is the Guidance, and the Healing. So they disregarded it
